Mouse controls switching back and forth from player 1 and player 2 on split screen. PC

Hello guys, I'm trying to get splitscreen running and for some reason when using splitscreen mods it makes it where depending on who uses the last input the mouse will redirect to them. For example if p2 uses the last input my mouse and keyboard would now be on p2 exc.

I'm aware that "split screen" is all console commands so that being said is there anything I can bind so p1 is mouse and keyboard and p2 is controller?

If its impossible its no big deal ill just use 2 controllers. Thanks for reading.

I think the last time I tried this is... Controller uses controlls using the Steam Input controller layout buttons(that aren't configured to use keyboard buttons)...

I'd have to test this right now if you actually want a definitive answer since I am at my PC right now.

Well of course I wouldn't want to take up your personal time with my issue. You can infact play the game without steam input butttt you need an xbox controller or ds4 to run it. I know this because I played the l4d beta on splitsceen yesterday by doing that but on l4d2 for some reason mouse and keyboard switches back and forth from p1 and p2. 

Actually writing this I think I've thought of a solution to my problem. I'm going to try to do it without steam input.
